He does this thing called 'tracking' I have no idea what that is, but I'm sure you computer people out there do.
He uses 'Impulse Tracker' I don't know if that is good or not, but you can make up your own mind.
He made this track called "Azure Skies" - for those of you who don't know, 'azure' is basically a fancy way of saying 'blue', but it makes it sound so much more elegant.
You can check out other tracks he - and others - have made at this site.
The reason this page came about was because he named a file for class "My Assignment with an excellent intro.doc" [or something to that effect]. And then proceeded to show me another file he had - for another class - that was titled "Mark is kool" and I told him that he is a tool, so he changed it to "Mark is a tool" and I threatened to make a page on my site about that, and he said that he bet I wouldn't. And, hence, here it is, in all it's golden, flowering glory.
Another person who is a bit of a tool is Legolas Greenleaf, prince of Mirkwood, from "Lord of the Rings". You can check him out here. But that's not where you go to check out Mark's stuff. That's here. Legolas here, Mark here. Mark here, Legolas here. Mark is the one with the screwdriver sticking out of his ear, Legolas is the one with the vallum half way to his lips.
Screwdriver-Ear: Okay then. Yep, just keep typin. Ooo, sacred places. Delicious. Well this could be interesting. The history of England from Reformation to Restoration. Uh oh. Someone didn’t write good JAVA script. What am I saying? I can’t even write JAVA script. Of course I manna de-bug. How much of Euro-vision did you actually see?
Lena: I didn’t see any.
Screwdriver-Ear: None? Zero? … that’s okay, one of my friends has it on tape. And last years. And the year before. … Apparently they watch it every week. I mean year >laughs<. You know what would be so cool
Lena: What?
Screwdriver-Ear: If this school has DSL. Oh, hang on, the school has faster than DSL, only it’s slow on these computers
Lena: Pardon?
Screwdriver-Ear: They have faster than DSL only it’s slow on these computers. Wow. Queen Elizabeth the first, the virgin Queen. Well look, there you go. Another one trying to catholicise England. Bloody Mary. Jeeze, lucky she died. Um… Dude! There’s like too much on Queen Elizabeth the First. Like, too much. These people, can’t learn JAVA script. Can’t write JAVA script for poo.
Lena: Can’t write JAVA script what?
Screwdriver-Ear: For poo. >laughs< You should put this on your website.
Lena: My conversation with Mark?
Screwdriver-Ear: No, a typical conversation with Screwdriver ear. Do you have anything about Sailor Moon there? Hey, you can’t write that, that’s what you said.
Lena: Yeah, I’ve been typing what I’m saying too.
Screwdriver-Ear: Oh. [as he plays with my pencil case]
[This is apparently the edited version. Seeing as I can’t type fast enough.]
Screwdriver-Ear: If this is a typical conversation with Screwdriver Ear then there should be something about Sailor Moon. Then you can say ‘Lets talk about Sailor Moon’ and I can be like ‘Okay’ and it’ll be good. [long pause]
Screwdriver-Ear: Oh did I tell you that I didn’t watch Sailor Moon on Friday?
Lena: No, you didn’t
Screwdriver-Ear: I didn’t watch Sailor Moon this Friday. I’m gonna save it for next Friday. … Excellent. … wah? Plague? What sortta plague was this?
Lena: Waddaya mean?
Screwdriver-Ear: What? In 1665.
Lena: I don’t know much about plagues.
Screwdriver-Ear: Okay, well, apparently in 1665 there was a great outbreak of plague
Lena: Oh, that was the one with Um… James…
Screwdriver-Ear: James?
Lena: No, Charles
Screwdriver-Ear: That’s what I thought. What sorta plague was it? Was it just the disease plague? Is it in the book? I’m not finding it.
Lena: That was before 1666 where the bridge burnt down
Screwdriver-Ear: Yeah, it was 1665. All of the stuff about 1665 is all about war and religion, >yawn< and not about plague.
Lena: What do you expect, this is a revolutions class
Screwdriver-Ear: I supposed… but it’s still a significant event. I mean, come on, plague, I mean, plague. >I smirk< what? >I hold up a hand< Okay, I’ll wait… but not before I get my dignity back. … Do you like cheese?
Lena: I kinda like cheese.
Screwdriver-Ear: What sortta cheese do you like? Hey, look, there’s Kara, >waves< She didn’t wave. She didn’t even look. Oh, the declaration of indulgence. That sounds interesting. Did I say that last time I read about the declaration of indulgence?
Lena: I think so.
Screwdriver-Ear: I think so too. Wow, Jews. SO, does this experience just totally cancel out your dream of becoming a stenographer? >I smirk again< maybe you should learn stenographer shorthand.
Lena: Maybe I should just get my nack back
Screwdriver-Ear: You’re nack? You have nack?
Lena: Something when I’m typing, I just go into the zone.
Screwdriver-Ear: Oh wow, there’s like, two lines on the restoration on this website. That’s a real help, thanks. Ah, wait, there’s more pages. … >comes over to my puter<
Lena: I had to compromise on the spelling in order to get most of the conversation
Screwdriver-Ear: Excellent >in true Mr. Burns style, hands and all< … >laughs at what I’m typing< hands and all. It’s almost go time. I can’t wait to get out of this class. I’m going to get that book by Hill >I look at him oddly cause I didn’t hear him right and thought he said something about hell< You know what I heard? I heard that William of Orange was kinda silly.
Lena: He died cause a mole scared his horse
Screwdriver-Ear: Cause of what now?
Lena: Hang on >I finish typing<
Screwdriver-Ear: Is that in here?
Lena: Probably not.
Screwdriver-Ear: What a shame. Hey, there’s Kara again. I think… wow she walks here a lot. You know, in Italian, Kara means ‘friend’ I think. >comes over to my puter again and giggles as I’m typing and checking spelling cause I can’t spell words.< put ‘giggles like a little girl’. We have a single tomorrow? I could’ve sworn we didn’t have a single till Thursday. Yes. My timetable validates this information.
